Cities: Skylines Anniversary and Sales Milestone

Publisher Paradox Interactive and developer Colossal Order announce Saturday
will be the third anniversary of the release of Cities: Skylines. They
also reveal a milestone, saying the urban planning game has now sold more than
five million units for PC since its launch. They are celebrating by giving all
players a few bits of free content which connect to next week's release of Surviving Mars (Update: apologies for the original version of this article erroneously calling Surviving Mars an expansion). Here are some details:

Over the
past three years, Cities: Skylines fans have definitively proven they can
survive Natural Disasters, heavy Snowfall and self-inflicted anarchy of all
sorts, but the question looms... can they survive Mars?

To celebrate its third birthday and five million milestone, Cities: Skylines
players are getting a new unique Rocket City building called Xchirp Launcher, an
astronaut Chirper, and a new free radio station - Official Mars Radio! Tune into
Mars beginning this Friday, March 9 and jam out to space musical electro songs
like Perfect Wave, Mission Stardust, The Return of Sputnik, Moon Zero Two and
Aiming for Jupiter. As Paradox gears up for the release of Surviving Mars (next
week!) on March 15th, all Cities owners will also get 10 percent off
pre-orders on
Steam.
